Excited to have my first paper as a first author published today in @eLife! A great experience all around. Thanks to all of our collaborators and reviewers! Hopefully our contribution is useful for those looking to describe/discover neural sequences elifesciences.org/articles/3…

Unsupervised discovery of temporal sequences in high-dimensional datasets, with applications to...

Building on simple unsupervised matrix factorization techniques, the seqNMF algorithm successfully recovers neural sequences in a wide range of simulated and real datasets.

🚨New Preprint! Wondered how grid cells form multiple discrete modules? Interested in continuous attractors and modularity? With @FieteGroup, we discover + generalize a physical mechanism for forming modules from smoothly varying parameters in a dynamical system!👇(1/15)

Our paper on nightingale whistle pitch matching is online now! 🐦‍⬛🎵🐦‍⬛@CurrentBiology cell.com/current-biology/ful… @MPIforBI @maxplanckpress

Wild nightingales flexibly match whistle pitch in real time

Costalunga et al. find that nightingales match the pitch of conspecific whistle songs and synthetic whistle song playbacks across a wide continuum of frequencies. Pitch matching is more precise when...

🏁🐦 Excited to share this new preprint by @selmaanchettih, me, Steph Hale, and Dmitriy Aronov! Barcoding of episodic memories in the hippocampus of a food-caching bird biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 🐦🏁

Barcoding of episodic memories in the hippocampus of a food-caching bird

Episodic memory, or memory of experienced events, is a critical function of the hippocampus[1][1]–[3][2]. It is therefore important to understand how hippocampal activity represents specific events...

Excited to share our 1st preprint on parrot vocal learning in the @jesseGlab !! We found some surprising differences in an important forebrain circuit between parrots and their evolutionary relatives–songbirds. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

An anterior forebrain pathway in parrots is necessary for individual signatures of learned vocali...

Parrots have enormous vocal imitation capacities and produce individually unique vocal signatures. Like songbirds, parrots have a nucleated neural song system, but because the two sister groups...

Minute-scale neuronal oscillations can organize the entire entorhinal cell population into global periodic sequences – a scaffold for sequence learning? Congrats to @soledad_gcogno and rest of team @KISNeuro for this remarkable discovery! #KiloNeurons 👉 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Minute-scale oscillatory sequences in medial entorhinal cortex

The medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) hosts many of the brain’s circuit elements for spatial navigation and episodic memory, operations that require neural activity to be organized across long durations...

WE DID IT: with a landslide margin of 1785–912, we are officially the MITGSU-UE!!! What started 4 years ago with a dozen students in an MIT classroom discussing the needs of graduate workers has culminated in this historic victory for student-workers at MIT. Now, we celebrate!

Happy to share our paper out today in @Nature ! Using the bat’s structured, reproducible flight behavior and wireless miniscopes, we find a stable hippocampal code- and show apparent remapping/drifting of neural tuning is due to changes in behavior. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
